Fashion fans are praising the pinafore dress for several reasons from the flattering fit to the practical pockets
It won’t be long until spring arrives but with the UK weather being pretty unpredictable, transitional clothing is key to a hardworking wardrobe. A pinafore midi dress at Roman is winning over fashion fans that are impressed with how ‘very versatile’ it is – it can be worn with a jumper, a long sweatshirt or a short sleeved tee.
The pinafore midi dress that is earning wearers ‘lots of compliments’, whether worn ‘for work or at home’, is even on sale in several shades. It comes in six colours overall, £38 at full price, however, the colour indigo blue, forest green and a rose pink have been reduced to £32.
Designed with a ‘flattering’ square neck, delicate button detailing and charming front patch pockets, the piece is both practical and fashionable. Made from 100% cotton, wearers praise the ‘lovely soft material’ and are impressed with the ‘great fit’ that is ‘very slimming’.
We love the idea of styling the pinafore midi dress with a plain white tee and popping a cardigan over the top while it is still chilly. A shopper gave their own styling tips writing: “Love my pinafore. Looks fab on. Great length too. Lightweight jumper underneath or a long sleeve t-shirt looks fab.”
Another customer found it to be a fun way to switch up their outfits, commenting: “A lovely alternative from always wearing jeans. It is smart and comfortable to wear. I was pleased with the quality.”
Pinafore Midi Dress
The dress comes in six colours – three of which are currently on sale.
Roman’s pinafore midi dress is proving so popular, shoppers are snapping it up in multiple colours. Someone shared: “I bought one in green and I like it so much I have bought another in rose.” Now the dress has been reduced to £32 in three colours, it’s a great time to take advantage for those that have their eye on a few shades.
One colour the dress from Roman doesn’t come in is black – but Marks and Spencer have this covered for those in need of that hue. The Linen Rich Button Through Pinafore Dress is £36 and shoppers say its a ‘lovely little dress’ that will ‘make a change from being in shorts’ come summer.
Another customer was impressed with the Roman dress, explaining: “Really love this corduroy pinafore. In fact I’ve just bought a second one in khaki. It’s very flattering to wear and below the knee length is perfect for me. I’ve had several compliments while wearing it already. Very versatile, as can be worn with a short sleeve tee shirt or polo neck jumper in colder weather. An excellent purchase at a good price.”
However, the sizing was an issue for a disappointed consumer. They pointed out that despite that dress being made from ‘lovely material’, they ‘wish it came in bigger sizes’. Roman’s pinafore dress is currently stocked in sizes 10 to 20.
Simply Be offers a more extensive sizing range, with the Premium Line Blend Pinafore Dress available in sizes 14 to 30. The brand state it ‘looks amazing layered over a white shirt paired with some ballet flats’.
Back to Roman’s offering, one customer said: “Very happy with this great dungaree dress. Lovely length and colour.” And another five star reviewer wrote: “I’m obsessed with corduroy so it ticks all the boxes for me. I also love the pockets on the front.”
